Why did the top official at the Social Security Administration resign?

The top official at the Social Security Administration stepped down over the weekend following a disagreement with Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). According to two sources who spoke to NBC News, she resigned after refusing a request from DOGE to access sensitive government records. This resignation comes amid broader changes across federal agencies, including looming firings at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) due to 'misalignment' with the current administration's agenda. These leadership changes are occurring alongside hundreds of general budget cuts that began at DHS the previous week.
